Hello all, my psn is TeD-AddicTeD...i think i played with some GTP members this afternoon.
i may have accidentally hit someone, i apologize
 
Three great races in a row for me, although I misjudged the first high-speed right-hander (two cars blocking the view in front) after the esses and got the short-cut penalty. Made for fun catch-up, though!

Lots of crazy wrecks this evening, two of which had a car un-ghost right as I was driving through it. BANG.



For some reason I get host duties in nearly every race I run, which increases my enjoyment of the GT5P online experience greatly. I'm glad it helps fellow GTP'ers out, too. However, that means you'll have to deal with my Tuned Vette on the track for three laps as well. ;)

i gont mind at all its good to see other vettes out there besides just me and 5 GTR's and a GT or 2

Haha... I'm not scared of your Vette in my mirrors any more! haha..
Yeah no a few very nice races, clean racing and with quite a few contestants.
In the last race I was in good position but made a rookie mistake in the last turn of the Esses.. The huge butt of the359's Viper was blocking my view! :)
 
Welcome RedHead!!



btw...that last Daytona race was another disaster made my way to first to be drilled bhy a red F430 ...he then ended up i front of me and ran me off the straight...then got taken out by a pack of spinning cars in first again
 
O_O was I the only one lagging to heck?

I rear-ended 359, and I never actually "saw" myself rear-end him. Just a "bump" and he was in the grass.
 
None for me that time. LOL...Snake, what did you pull up for just now? I didnt see you do anything wrong???? Ipulled along side you and waited anyway...if I realised it was earth and....rrr..the other GTP guy in the front I would have continued I think. lol



oh and that red F430 Imentioned in my previous post turns out to be the same one from last night....username drriffttt or something like that. What an idiot, he swotched over to a Clio last race
 
Was I the one who was lagging so bad at that last fuji race? I quit because I don't want to ruin everybody elses race if im messing it up!

I think it was the hosts fault. I fell victim to the lag too and just pulled off course. race is over now,hit start!
 
Just had a nice battle with GTP_HAAS599 for 1st place, I had him in the corners but my car was a little underpowered in the straights.
 
How about we make the rammers scratch their heads with all of us using 512BBs? LMAO I'll be at Daytona with one.

Or Fuji if ya want.
 
Haha Earth... Sorry man I wanted to wait for you and have a decent race without all the morons in the middle of the pack, but as soon as we were alone in the back it started lagging bad! :)

Haha Grand Prix you make me laugh every time i see you you're driving an old school Ferrari! Like your style...
 
The359, sorry about the last turn on Fuji! I was trying to be hesitant but I went for the pass and got you loose. So I slowed down to let you by, I felt bad. :(
 
Thanks, Cheef! I lost it right before that last turn, but I don't think I was going to catch you anyway. Just glad I pulled out without spinning all the way around.

hey no joke, I was going to suggest we pick cars maybe once a week just out of the blue to cut the repetitive cars we choose normally. this will make it easy to race each other as well and not worry about the rest

btw guys not in race...press start now..
 
DigitalRelay that was you in the Evo? Your good man, I was in the red GT-R we had quite a hardcore battle during one of the races.

The359, sorry about the last turn on Fuji! I was trying to be hesitant and not hit you, but I went for the pass and got you loose; resulting in a spinout in my rear-view mirror.. So I slowed down to let you by, my bad!

I'm getting tired of the same thing over and over

Fuji is a madhouse now. So is Suzuka, and Daytona road is turning that way. I'm geussing alot of the bad drivers are graduating from the A events and are now decending upon the pro events using the same tactics they used to beat A class, just push the car ahead of you out of the way. Every single turn is seen as a passing opportunity, after all, whats the worst that can happen? You will bump the car ahead and send him sailing off into the grass and you just MAY receive a 1 second penalty and thats it.

In 90% of the races you either get pushed off the track, your car spins out due to changing rubberband physics, suddenly the entire race will start to lag, or the host quits.

We deserved much better from PD, even for just $40. This game needs to be patched again, SOON. I'm not talking about this fall, I'm tallking about in the next couple of months.

I also use bolt-action rifles in FPS games, LOL

Maybe we could meet on Daytona Road at 8:40 PST in cars that we don't normally use?

I figured that's what it was. I thought I actually went too wide and left the door open for you, but those last turns at Fuji just have such awkward angles that it's hard to stay to the outside or stay to the inside and keep it clean.

You should have kept going since I was spinning, and you lost another place to the blue Viper.

I noticed it very bad this night...stupidity all around. Not too much a patch can do unless it improves the code that ghosts people that swerve or starts sensing the actual force one car is transfering to the next.

We just need to work on getting GTP tags on all of us so we can pick each other out of the pack and know who we can trust on our tail. We also need to get organised in terms of the tracks/cars/time

Yep, that was me. Agreed, that was a good battle, and thank you! I had been running an F430, but that Evo X Tuned feels glued to the track in comparison.
